Changing autocomplete behavior - Firefox
From MozillaZine Knowledge Base
The Location Bar, the Search Bar and some form fields on web pages have autocomplete dropdowns that appear with a list of previously entered data. To remove them, you will need to edit your config files.
- Note that this is not a clean solution, it will cause some errors appear in JavaScript Console and may cause the browser to malfunction.
In userChrome.css
, add the following lines:
/* Remove autocomplete dropdown */ #PopupAutoComplete > .autocomplete-tree { display: none !important; }
If you also want to remove the dropdown button at the far right of the Location Bar, add the following line:
.autocomplete-history-dropmarker { display: none !important; }
You may want to enable inline autocomplete instead.
